6 hours in... Sydney
While many cruise itineraries will offer an overnight on-board in Sydney, or maybe even an extended hotel stay, if you find yourself in the city with just one day to explore, they are a number of local landmarks and attraction that are not to be missed. There’s little argument about which Sydney’s two most famous man-made landmarks are. The Sydney Opera House and Harbour Bridge are both ingrained the culture and heritage of Sydney, and both of these amazing structures are open to the public. While you might not have time to see a show at the Opera House, there’s nothing stopping you from wandering around to simply have a look inside. Those organised individuals who've planned their day in advance could have even arranged a Harbour Bridge climb, scaling to the top of this gigantic structure to enjoy incredible panoramic views of Sydney.

So you’ve explored the city of Sydney already and seen all there is to see? Well I suppose you’ll be looking for a little relaxation now, won’t you? Well luckily, Sydney boasts one of the world’s most iconic beaches, the world-famous Bondi Beach.

Can’t keep away?
As a major global metropolis, brimming with culture and heritage and attracting tourists from all over the world, it’s hardly surprising that Sydney is filled with fantastic shopping districts, restaurants and bars and which to browse for souvenirs or sample some local cuisine. Not only can this, but those with a bit more time on their hands can travel just outside the city to see some of Australia’s most inspiring scenery and wildlife. Not far from Sydney you’ll find the Blue Mountains and the Royal National Park, both of which offers incredibly rewarding experiences. Nestled just outside the city in the New South Wales countryside, these verdant mountainous regions combine breathtaking landscapes and an array of wildlife. While exploring on foot is a great way to appreciate the area’s natural beauty, to really appreciate your surroundings, you could opt for an unforgettable helicopter tour for a unique perceptive on the region.
